It has been busy here in my little corner of the world, but the memory quilt is getting close to complete. All that is left is hand stitching the binding, a wash and another good once over for good measure.

Yesterday I attached them in horizontal strips and am hand stitching them on the back, hopefully tomorrow I will get them attached vertically and on to the hand stitching for that and then some frames/borders!

I was contacted a few weeks ago about making a memory quilt and Tuesday 2 boxes of clothes arrived for me to work with. I got down to business yesterday. My plan is to make it quilt as you go so that I can spray baste and avoid doing a lot of 'unstable' sewing with jersey and other knitted fabrics.
